Songs of Pi Lambda Phi

Jolly Laddies (To the Tune of There’s a Tavern in the Town)

We are Jolly Laddies, Jolly Laddies we,

And firm united is our com-a-ra-de-rie,

So we’ll all join in, to make the wel-kin ring,

While to Pi Lambda Phi we sing.

So let’s join in jolly chorus,

While our Youth is still before us,

Let us ev-er joy-ous be.

Pi Lamb-da Phi inscribed in ev’ry loy-al heart,

Fra-ter-nal friendship till in death we all do part.

So we’ll all join in, to make the wel-kin ring,

While to Pi Lambda Phi we sing!

Brother Mine Forever

(To the chorus of “Keep the Home Fires Burning”)

Brother mine forever,

We are bound together,

By a bond that stronger grows

As years roll by.

Mystic words unspoken,

Holy vows unbroken

Holds us faithful to the tie,

Of Pi Lambda Phi.

When the days are dreary,

When the heart grows weary;

Tho the dark clouds of despair,

May hide the sky,

I shall ne'er be friendless,

For our love is endless;

Even death can't break the tie,

Of Pi Lambda Phi.

National Anthems

Canada O Canada!

Our home and native land!

True patriot love in all thy sons command.

With glowing hearts we see thee rise,

The True North strong and free!

From far and wide,

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

God keep our land glorious and free!



United States of America Oh, say can you see,

By the dawn's early light,

What so proudly we hailed

At the twilight's last gleaming,

Whose broad stripes and bright stars,

Through the perilous fight,

O'er the ramparts we watched

Were so gallantly streaming

And the rockets' red glare,

The bombs bursting in air,

Gave proof through the night

That our flag was still there.

O, say, does that

Star-Spangled Banner yet wave

O'er the land of the free

And the home of the brave

THE CREED OF PI LAMBDA PHI

T HAT ALL MEN ARE CREATED FREE AND

EQUAL.

T HAT NO SOCIETY OF MEN CAN FLOURISH

UNLESS MEMBERS OF THAT SOCIETY ARE

ENDOWED WITH THE OPPORTUNITIES AND

PRIVILEGES OF FREEDOM.

T HAT FREEDOM IMPLIES THE ELIMINATION OF

PREJUDICE – THAT THE ELIMINATION OF

PREJUDICE MEANS A BETTER UNDERSTANDING

„TWIXT MEN.

T HAT IT IS INCUMBENT UPON ME TO FIGHT FOR

SUCH FREEDOM EVEN WITH MY LIFE.

T HAT IT IS INCUMBENT UPON ME IN MY

PERSONAL LIFE TO BE DEVOTED TO THE HIGHEST

STANDARDS OF HONESTY AND JUSTICE.

T HAT BECAUSE MY COUNTRY IS DEDICATED TO

THE HIGHEST STANDARDS OF FREEDOM AND

JUSTICE FOR ALL MEN OF ALL CREEDS, I HEREBY

PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO MY COUNTRY, AND TO

ITS NATIONAL SYMBOL.
